Meandering through a craft show, I spotted Amber with her dog Zita. When I explained 100 Strangers, she was intrigued and stopped to talk for a while. She LOVES the Sarasota area. Her parents are in California, but she has absolutely no desire to move there. Amber works for the health department in Manatee county, about 10 miles north.

I asked her what was the best thing that happened to her that day. She said, “Not having to work.” (It was a Saturday)
